Is it supposed to hit profit margins? Because I doubt it will, people will still be buying necessities at the same amount and call me cynical, but I believe almost everyone will be buying the non-necessities the days before and after.
To be candid, it just sounds like the most toothless, do-nothing, slacktivism kind of protest that's only meant to generate backpats
it could turn violent and do real damage to capital, that's the beauty of an unfocused protest -- the night is ever young
